Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala Husky Jerk 6 , 3/16oz SB fishing lure #19265

Coated in a classic Silver Blue (SB) finish, this 2 1/4" (6 cm) minnow-style lure features scale-patterned sides and a shimmering metallic underbelly. Originating from the Ireland production era, the Rapala Husky Jerk 6 is a dedicated suspending jerkbait designed to hold its depth in the water column. At a weight of 3/16 oz (6 g), the lure is equipped with two dark-finished treble hooks and a clear diving lip configured for a working depth of 3.9 - 5.9 ft (1.2 - 1.8 m). This specific specimen, identified by product code 19265, is intended for casting or trolling when targeting species such as pike, zander, or trout using uniform or stop-and-go retrieves. The hardware and body are well-preserved, showing only light signs of handling for a 4/5 condition rating. Many collectors value these Irish-made models for the specific craftsmanship seen in the foil layering and body construction.
